    Supreme pizza.

    Best Restaurant I've eaten at in a long while!!! The cocktails, appetizers and pizza was amazing. Extremely friendly and helpful service. The service is the best I've had in a long time as well. Highly recommend this Restaurant!!!! Make sure to make a reservation you will not regret it!!!!

    Tartufo- truffle paste with oil, mozzarella, candied tomatoes and goat cheese.

    Thé food was excellent. Everything was so fresh and flavorful. We had an excellent Pinot noir from France that paired perfectly with our salad and pizza. The service was wonderful. The owner and his wife are amazing. The place is very small, but comfortable. It is away from the crowds of old town but still close enough to walk if you are visiting the Old Quebec City.

    Pizza w prosciutto, arugula rockets, and artichokes & Margherita pizza

    So yummy and pizza came out very quick. I got the lunch special with the soup of the day, pizza prosciutto, and coffee at the end for $20 total. My boyfriend got the margherita pizza and a glass of house wine (chardonnay) for $17 total. Cheesy crust on the outside of the pizza. We tried to go back again because we loved it so much but didn't realize it was closed on Sundays (and Mondays)! Convenient spot close to the train station if you're coming/leaving Quebec.

    5 stars!!!! Can't stop thinking about this place. Heavenly pizza. I'm a huge fan of cheese, so when the pizza came out with the cheese overflowing it's crust... I was in cheese heaven. Though we got full from eating a pizza to ourselves, we were tempted to get the creme brûlée. Besssst decision ever. So good!! If I were to go back and visit Quebec City, it would be because of this restaurant!

    Appetizer portion of the Caesar salad... A few too many capers for my taste but I loved the copious amount of bacon!

    Just by the train station, this little family-run pizza spot is an absolute gem. The food is more than decent; we tried the Caesar salad, two pizzas, and the Mars bar crème brûlée. The appetizer sized salad is copious, with lots of bacon and quite a lot of capers... I'm not a huge fan but my husband was eating them up by the spoonful so it worked out ;) The Di Marco pizza was very well balanced with prosciutto, arugula, and balsamic reduction. We tried an Italian sausage pizza with hot peppers that was pretty good as well. The crust is crazy thin - almost nonexistent, and the cheese runs off the edges to form a baked cheese sort of crust. The crème brûlée really tasted like a Mars bar and had the crunchy crust and creamy texture of the classic dish. But forget all of that, because the service was the absolute warmest we have ever received. Without hovering, our server, the owner, made us feel welcome, asked about our visit, and was simply genuine. Just go!

    Great place for pizza. My sister and i visited Quebec and had a wonderful lunch at this place. Pizza was flavorful, thin crust and the service was great as well as the drinks and the view.

    A must try for Quebec City! One of the most unique and best tasting pizzas I have experienced.

    Bruchetta appetizer. I actually LOVED the balsamic on the salad the best on this dish

We were seated on the patio and our very sweet server was right out to take our drink order. Since we are eating Poutine all over Canada in search of our favorite. We so enjoyed sitting on the patio, it was a beautiful day, we were people watching and enjoying the umbrellas place up the alley. Our poutine was delivered to the table and I can honestly say it was our favorite. The fries were crunch and creamy on the inside. The gravy was rich and had a deep flavor and the cheese curds had lightly melted. Every bite was perfect. The eatery and bar are tucked into a stone house that dates back to 1668, if only the walls could talk. The bar and restaurant feature local Quebec cuisine and is a gem. The service was excellent as was the atmosphere.

We had 9 people and they sat 5 at a table and 4 at the bar and we were completely fine with the arrangement. It is quaint and small and we could see our family and even shared some food since we Were close enough. The cheese fondue is not to be missed . It was absolutely the perfect start to our meal. Then we shared an original poutine and it also was delicious- best I had on our trip thus far! I ordered mussels for my meal and a steaming pot arrived and they were yummy. Ambiance and service were great. They accommodated our awful French attempts. Drinks were large. Honestly, I feel lucky to have dined here. Everything was wonderful!

I wasn't too hungry so I ordered an app for my entree, the bruschetta. It came loaded with seasoned tomato pieces. Hubby ordered the pasta with clams in a spicy sauce. There was a misunderstanding with his meal. When hubby asked questions about the carbonara, our server thought he ordered the carbonara when he actually decided on the pasta with clams. When the wrong meal was brought over, our server escalated to his manager who then offered to exchange his meal. They kept apologizing for the mixup but honestly, they already handled it well by replacing it without issues. The pasta dish was so good! I scooped the extra sauce with my crostini and really enjoyed it. The clams were meaty and fresh too. Daughter ordered the pasta with meat sauce- also very good. This small restaurant has tables pretty close together and is part of a hotel. If anything needs to be improved, it's the ventilation. Afterwards, our clothes had heavy food scents!

We decided to try our luck at Portofino, which had some great reviews. We were told the wait would be an hour or more--and almost exactly an hour later, our table opened up. Totally worth the wait! The whole family loves Italian food, and Portofino delivered. We started with Caprese and bruschetta, followed by cacio e pepe, arrabbiata, eggplant Parmesan, and pizza. Everything was delicious, and the staff was happy to adjust a couple of dishes to our liking. One thing we didn't know before arriving: there was live music! We ended up with a table right next to the duo performing. It was actually a lot of fun singing along to some good old classics. If you're looking for a quiet, romantic dinner, though, this may not be your place--but for a lively family evening, it was perfect! And since we had a birthday in the group, the staff surprised us with cannoli mousse, crème and ice cream. A huge shout-out to Steve, who was absolutely awesome! He was attentive, friendly, and genuinely made our evening special. And kudos to Steve and the chef for serving up some seriously finger-licking-good food! We'll definitely be back. Next time, though, we're making a reservation!
